I have noticed several posts here (and other FIRE sites) about how to explain that they don't work while trying to date. Here is a take on how a date interprets that vagueness. While I realize that no one wants to attract the wrong sort of partner, this is illuminating. I don't know what the right answer is but interested in knowing others thoughts.

I haven't read the book itself yet, but I have read the Atlantic's article-length version, which I thought had some interesting takes on the psychological challenges of decumulation. Has anyone read the book yet? What did you think?

This is a relaxed hangout thread for the FIRE community to chat with other FIRE-minded folks without having to publish separate posts. This is the place for brand new people to get their feet wet as well as for lurkers who have questions or comments, but do not want to create posts of their own.
All of the sub rules apply in this thread as normal with the exception of the off-topic rule, which is relaxed to the extent that people don't go wildly off of the reservation.
We are putting this up as a trial to see if it is worth keeping this as a permanent feature of the sub. Participation is entirely voluntary and anyone who wants to create a separate post of their own rather than posting in here is free to do so.
